I don't know
I don't ask for an appointment with time if I get lost.

I don't ask for the impossible if I repent
And no appointment with time if I get lost
My days have become long until I get tired
I had no homeland in it, but I lived
And I rode its whirlpool and did not get stuck in it
Its atmospheres have taken me by storm, so I took my time
My patience did not run out from it, but I pretended
And when relief came on its stage, I played
And with what fate gave me, I convinced myself
My only hope was not to win, but I interacted
I led my soul to dreams, and in them I resided
And I revealed my condition, but I denied it
The two conditions coincided, so I despaired of them
For the old, I realized, but I accepted
And with the new, I coexisted, but I philosophized
And my paths intersected, and I did not flatter
I forgave my time, but I did not flatter it
Denial saved me, and I protected it
I held on to the love of life, and from it I learned
I succeeded and failed, but I did not deny
And hope remains more beneficial, even if it groans
Above me A sky that rains no matter how much I complain
And beneath me is a land that produces its bounties
Beside me is the other party competing with me if I advance
In front of me is the unseen world no matter how much I see
And behind me are memories that I do not cling to
So why do I feel arrogant towards myself and my life?
And how do I preserve my dignity if I lose it?
And when will I regain myself if I risk it?
What hope is there in vain if I pledge
And my sin is not forgiven if I complain
I have a heart with which I have done good and praised
And no one is more merciful to me if I persist
The best of things is that which is balanced
So praise be to God for what He has given me
And I do not know if I have become accustomed to it
